ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector has a plurality of insulation displacement connectors (IDCs) grouped together by an injection-molded, plastic bridge. The bridge integrates the IDCs permitting easier handling and assembly with other electrical elements, such as by inserting projections from the IDCs into vias of a printed circuit board. The bridge results in a strengthened IDC group structure and facilitates interaction with an assembly tool, thereby allowing smaller IDCs and diminishing cross-talk. The IDC group may be utilized with a mating IDC cover having resilient members which resiliently supports and shields the IDCs and an attached circuit. The IDC groups may be utilized in fabricating a connector, such as a CAT 6 connector.
